After service, we gathered together to hear and reconnect with Pastor Edgar and Maribel. We heard their testimonies, their hearts, and the vision God has placed in them.

Before we delivered the bags of food, we prayed for the miracle of the food lasting longer than it's supposed to. We prayed for every house, person and family we are going to visit this week. We prayed for them to feel God’s love and provision.

We had a full house this afternoon. We had the opportunity to minister and spent time with ladies from the church and community.
It was a beautiful time of fellowships between sisters in faith.

We are almost done with the ramps and sidewalks. It's been a hot day but super productive.

This afternoon we had VBS with kids from the community and the church. This week they are back to school, but run after their classes to come in time.
We love the seeds planted in them and pray for them to grow into fruitful trees.

In this case it was painting time, wherever it takes to do it right, even weird angles.
